RE: Unalienable Rights...

[Debbie Gray <dgray@uidaho.edu>]

It seems the debate is at cross-purposes, once again. In my understanding,
Tom and Don, etc.  are positing that you can support the military
_personnel_ w/out necessarily supporting the actions of the
government/military. Melynda, etc., are positing that we have the right,
and it must be supported, to voice our opposition to the actions of the
military. However, this is all getting wrapped up into a generic,
emotionalized 'PEACENIK' vs. 'MILITANT' debate which will continue ad
nauseum until another hot topic comes along for people to debate at
cross-purposes.

So, do you all agree that we should support the individual person (under
the uniform) in the military, while we can certainly question, debate and
oppose the orders they follow?
